Digital BW, The Print

Dear Eric,

I do...

Neat Image is actually quite powerful, and will save many images otherwise
considered unusable, specifically relating to possible film grain noise from
a 
scanner.  I have this problem periodically.

I can show you two images that look as different as night and day, where
the Neat Image file is clean, denser, and absolutely desirable to print.

I use it as required, and you can obviously apply the correction to a
masking layer, remove the unwanted noise in that manner and, or apply
the correction to the entire image.

A print house introduced me to this filter a few months ago.  It¹s a great
tool.  Depending on the horsepower under your hood, it does take a while
to complete it¹s task, but loading a preset filtration value determined by
the 
user, will speed the process up considerably.
